International Master and Graduate Programs

The Lille Master of Physics and Applications is affiliated with the Graduate Programmes of the University of Lille.  Courses are taught in English and integrate to the research-driven and cross-disciplinary graduate programs.

In particular, programs are available for the:

and are based on the Physics for the 21st Century curriculum during the first year followed in the second year by either Matter, Molecules and their Environments (MME) for the graduate programme SCP, or Photonics Complex and Quantum Systems : Foundations and Applications (PhoCQS) for the graduate programme IKS.

In addition, the Matter, Molecules and their Environnement (MME) program will host the third semester of courses for the  Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree BIOPHAM. This program aims at meeting an international demand for qualified graduates with theoretical and applied high-level training in materials science and its applications to pharmaceutical materials.

The Lille Master of Physics is part of the Graduate Programmes of the University of Lille. Courses are taught in English and integrate into the research-driven and cross-disciplinary graduate programs Science for a changing planet for the Matter, Molecules and their Environnement (MME) second-year option, and Information and Knowledge Society for the Photonics Complex and Quantum Systems : Foundations and Applications (PhoCQS) second-year option.

The objective of the Graduate Programme "Information and Knowledge Society" is to train experts that will build together a human-friendly digital world. To this aim, it brings together 10 complementary Master tracks (data science and artificial intelligence, internet of things, electronics, photonics, mathematics, scientific computing, cognitive sciences, philosophy,…).

As for physics, students will follow the program on:

Students from Lille, France, and abroad can apply to those programs. Studends can also benefit from financial support for scholarshiprelocation scholarship, and/or research training outside of Lille. Details on procedures for scholarship and admission to the program are available on the web site of the Graduate Programmes

Master and PhD students joining the Information and Knowledge Society programme will benefit from:

  • interdisciplinary scientific trainings and events such as seminars and summer schools,
  • proven professional english skills: courses are taught in english, internships abroad are supported,
  • practicals on cutting-edge equipments,
  • internships in research labs and/or in companies,
  • professional networking: interaction with researchers, engineers from public and private sectors in which students project their future carreer,
  • financial support: scholarships for students having the highest academic records, contribution to student travel and installation costs to settle in Lille or to complete an internship in another country than France,
  • personalised assistance to define her/his professional project all along her/his academic path.

The objective of the Graduate Programme « Science for a Changing Planet » is to train and empower professionals to explore how sciences (including Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Earth and Environmental Sciences) can answer the challenges of the changing planet: 1) understanding and monitoring global changes 2) seeking alternative solutions to the exploitation of fossil resources 3) evaluating the impact of climate change on Earth, people and societies.

The Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree BIOPHAM is a two-year master programme entirely taught in English. It aims at meeting an international demand for qualified graduates with theoretical and applied high-level training in materials science and its applications to pharmaceutical materials.

BIOPHAM was built by a consortium of four European Universities and jointly operated by the University of Lille (France), the University of Pisa (Italy), the University of Silesia in Katowice (Poland) and the Polytechnic University of Catalunya (Spain) and benefits from the involvement of a very large international network of companies, large scale facilities and associated Universities.

BIOPHAM is built as a two-years 4-terms program. The first semester is held at the University of Pisa and the second semester at the Polytechnic University of Catalunya. During the third term, students can choose between a training on soft-matter and biopharmaceuticals at the University of Silesia in Katowice or condensed-matter and pharmaceuticals at the Université de Lille. The fourth term is dedicated to work placement and master thesis.

The courses in Lille are hosted and shared with the Matter, Molecules and their Environments (MME) program and provide students development skills on the specialized materials science underlying the research pharmaceutical formulation. It will focus on: the different materials used in the field of pharmacy, their physical states, their specific modes of preparation and transformation induced by the typical constraints imposed by pharmaceutical industrial processes.

For details regarding the admission proceduretuition fees, and scholarship opportunities for the full Erasmus Mundus program are on the main BIOPHAM master degree website.

Students from Lille can join the Matter, Molecules and their Environments (MME) program and follow the third term classes of BIOPHAM.
